Answer

The graph is attached.

Work Step by Step

First, we see that this problem is in the form $y=\frac{a}{x-h}+k$. Thus, we use the shape of $\frac{1}{x}$ and the value of $a$ to create the graph. $h$ and $k$ determine how the graph is shifted. Looking at the asymptotes, we see that the domain is all real numbers except -7 and the range is all real numbers except -5.
